NolitaPublicLibrary This project tests the definition of a library, as it transitions to the 2lst century. Showcasing the opposites of 0ld vs New / Virtual vs Analogue. The public that activates the middle ground will choose to either blur the gap or favor either one. The community is to determine wether they want a didactic institution, a museum of books, a gathering place, or all of the above.
